As you know, I alert you whenever the
New York Times mentions
Jerry Lewis. Consider yourself alerted.
Today's Jerry reference comes to us courtesy of the reliable
Dave Kehr, and includes a tantalizing comment about "
Chris Fujiwara’s excellent
monograph on Mr. Lewis, which comes out this week from the University of
Illinois Press." (I feel I should explain today's
randomly selected picture, which is, of course,
Mr. Ward pretending to enjoy the
Foster Brooks robot at the MGM Grand, before
that robot was literally thrown out with the trash.)
